We were rockin' & rollin'

A 5.4 Earthqauke hit southern california yesterday. It's epicenter was located somewhere between Chino Hills, Diamond Bar, Yorba Linda & Pomona. We even felt it out here all the way in the desert! It has been a long time since we felt a big one!! The last one I can remember was the Landers Earthquake back in 1992, and that one was a 7.3!!! Jeremy's parents house was hit pretty good, but no damage. Cheryl, (my dad's girlfriend) lives on the border of Chino Hills and Phillips Ranch. She said all of her cabinets and drawers opened, along with a lot of items falling off shelves. Luckily nothing was broken and no one was hurt.

R.I.P. Randy Pausch - You will be greatly missed!

Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon Professor who became a phenomenon with his "Last Lecture" video, passed away this morning due to complications of pancreotic cancer. I first saw the "Lecture" in January of this year. It was during a time in which Jeremy and I were sturggling with some very personal matters. This man and his words truly touched both of us. And made us put some very important things into perspective about our lives. If you have just 10 minutes, please watch this. It is a shorter version of the speech he gave to his students. Get a box of tissues ready!



Thank you Randy for your wonderful heart, inspiration and positive attitude. You touched so many people and changed our lives. You will never be forgotten!!
